Perl and Mysql display data problem

Hello I have several problems. I'm trying to write a perl script that would
check the username and password from Mysql database and allow users to
login. I'm new to both systems and i have a lot of oruble with them. Here is
the perl script that i'm trying to build.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#!/usr/bin/perl -wT

use strict;
use CGI;
use CGI::Carp;
use DBI;
use Template;


# Load the CGI input data.
my $html = new CGI;
print $html->header();

#my $dsn = 'DBI:mysql:ttf:localhost';
#my $db_user_name = 'web';
#my $db_password = 'nouser';
#my ($uid, $password);
#my $dbh = DBI->connect($dsn, $db_user_name, $db_password);


my ($sth);


my ($input_username = "bobob", $input_password = "password") 


my $sth = $dbh->prepare(qq{
   select uid, password from logins
        where username = $input_username
});
$sth->execute();

($uid, $password) = $sth->fetchrow_array();
$sth->finish(): 
if ($input_password eq $password) 
{
          ...
}

$sth->fetchrow_array()

my $sth = $dbh->prepare(qq{
   select fname, lname from users
});
$sth->execute();
while (my ($fname, lname) = 
  $sth->fetchrow_array())
{
     print "$fname, $lname\n";
}
$sth->finish();
 

my (@matrix) = ();
while (my @ary = $sth->fetchrow_array())
{
   push(@matrix, [@ary]);
}
sth->finish();


$dbh->disconnect();

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I keep on getting this errors, i have idea how to fix them. :)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

syntax error at ./login.pl line 34, near ")


my "
Global symbol "$input_username" requires explicit package name at ./login.pl
line 34.
Global symbol "$uid" requires explicit package name at ./login.pl line 40.
syntax error at ./login.pl line 41, near "):"
Execution of ./login.pl aborted due to compilation errors.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Any help would be really apreciated.

Another question i have, how to write the code so it could get for example
first name and last name. and put them in to a hashed array, so i could
display only fthe first or last name on the page.

Once again, thx guys.
